How do I connect a Sony Bravia Smart TV with a Wi-Fi adapter to the Telstra Smart Modem Gen 2?
To connect your Sony Bravia TV to the Telstra Smart Modem Gen 2, you will need the Wi-Fi Network Name (SSID) and the Wi-Fi Password (Security Key) found on the magnet or sticker located on the bottom or back of your modem.
If your TV or adapter is having trouble finding or staying connected to the network, it may be due to 'Band Steering,' which merges the 2.4GHz and 5GHz signals. You can try the following steps to create a dedicated connection for your device:
http://mymodem.Once Band Steering is disabled, your modem will broadcast two separate signals. Use your TV's network settings menu to search for available networks, select your Telstra network name, and enter the password when prompted. Since your adapter supports WPA2-PSK, it is compatible with the default security settings of the Gen 2 modem.
